Your twisting the words here. I pointed out what happened to her and that she had been working on turning her life around. But I also had been aware that she had battled throat cancer and she had kidney failure and was on dialysis. So from that perspective I wasn't to surprised to know she had passed away. I knew she had some very serious health problems.
I certainly wasn't taking any joy in her misfortune and it is a terrible shame that she let her depression get to the point that she was addicted to alcohol and pills. But she started dealing with it and was doing better, it's just that all those years did take a toll and her health suffered for it.
Find something else to rant about rather than your imagined slighting you think I had of her.
I was a big fan of hers when I was a kid and it depresses me when I see another icon from my youth gone and way too soon at that, 63 is just too Damn young to die in this day and age.
You dissemble.
103-" it depresses me when I see another icon from my youth gone ".
I remenber her in "A Summer Place", and still love to listen to the theme.
It is scary - how we no longer are in the summer of our years, but entering the winter. It makes you stop and think, where did they go?
